The infamous video.
Hey, what’s your number? Does your daddy let you date? ;)
I’m super jealous of this lady >.< Awesome hair! Model! Singer!
I REALLY want to read this book. Waris Dirie is so inspirational and I adore her attitude toward the modelling industry: “It was fun, but it was meaningless.”
I honestly can’t wait until my dreads are this impressive. My babies (dreadlocks) are only 5 months old.
Queen Elizabeth I: [to her army, lined up in front of her at Tilbury] My loving people. We see the sails of the enemy approaching. We hear the Spanish guns over the water. Soon now, we will meet them face-to-face. I am resolved, in the midst and heat of the battle, to live or die amongst you all. While we stand together no invader shall pass. Let them come with the armies of Hell; they will not pass! And when this day of battle is ended, we meet again in heaven or on the field of victory.

Tomorrow’s Daughters
I want to write a poem
About pretty black girls
Who don’t relax and lie their dreams away
Voices that curl
The staright edges of history
Hair thin slices of a movement
Turning the world kinky
I respect the disciplined silent screamers
Who expose the holes
Emily Dickinson, I am climbing through
To your wooden shed of isolation
Where the robin’s song
Robbed you of your sanity
I revere people to my own detriment
Perhaps you did too
But when I enter your hallowed hearth
Please don’t me away
I want to show pretty black girls
How to look at their hearts
With eyes blaring at full blast
The way you did together we can build a bridge
To the promise in their faces
And pull them towards poems by pretty black girls
Wearing crowns of change
